REAR INFLATABLE SAFETY BELT (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING: Do not attempt to service, repair, or modify the rear
inflatable safety belt.
The rear inflatable safety belts are fitted in the shoulder portion of the
safety belts of the second-row outboard seating positions.
Note: The rear inflatable safety belts are compatible with most infant and
child safety car seats and belt positioning booster seats when properly
installed. This is because they are designed to fill with a cooled gas at a
lower pressure and at a slower rate than traditional airbags. After inflation,
the shoulder portion of the safety belt remains cool to the touch.
